I have a 2008 Nissan Quest and my battery and break light came on at the same time and at the time I had my air conditioner on ... I had the gas all the way to the floor and it was barely moving. I turned off the air conditioner and it sped up!! I am not sure what this could be... please help.

Latwohn, yes! That is exactly what the problem was. I bought a new alternator, (which took them FOREVER to put on because they had to take a lot of other parts off to get to it) but once they put on the new alternator, it solved the problem. $400.00.
